cork (thin slices of cork)

Explanation:

Robert Hooke used the term "cell" in 1665. He made the first compound microscope, and he used it to see the cork cells. He took thin slices of cork and examined it under the compound microscope.

b because they naturally adapt to their environment plz mark brainliest

explanation:

try using substitution:

x + y - 6 = x - y. (i'm not giving you the exact answer). since 0 = x - y, then sub 0 in the equation with x - y. combine your like terms, and then use inverse operations, and you'll have your answer.
